Windows XP handles DLL's a bit differently.

Start by opening Windows Explorer and finding bc.exe  Right click its icon 
and select Properties|Compatability and set the compatability to Windows 95.

If it still gives trouble, search the disk for bivbx30.dll.  It will 
probably be in \windows or \windows\system.  Copy it to the compiler's BIN 
directory.  Repeat for any other dll's it complains about not being able to 
find.
